Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

He was a time traveler attempting to blend in and make his photograph appear technologically relevant to the time period.

If you're in to this, you GOTTA watch the Ken Burns doc on the Brooklyn Bridge. It's streaming on Netflix.

For some strange reason, this photo makes me feel very nostalgic, though I obviously wasn't alive back then.

Trippy.

This was in my AP US history text book.

People need to stop reminding me of high school. First an Acadec painting and now this?

Noticed there was a ferry station near the bridge. Guess it's owner wished this bridge would never be completed.

The Brooklyn entrance is a beautiful piece of architecture, it's a pity that both sides lie in some of the worst neighborhoods in the City.

Really one of the most over-engineered bad ass structures ever built. Half of it doesn't even sit on bedrock.
